They are asking on the forums for people to help with server stress testing, so if possible, please try and log on and play for a bit from 8pm tomorrow evening.

My only concern for this game is the lack of end game content if I'm honest, I like the idea of PvP but don't know how well it will work.

Did you not watch the latest dev stream?

End game patch is due within about a week

Nope, I don't watch dev streams if I'm honest.

Is there a lot of end game content being added then? Is there a list? I'm locked down pretty hard at work so can't view any google results -.- Is it solo friendly or am I forced to play with others?

No-one knows yet, ultimate powers should also be in that beta patch.

Does anyone think the Ultimate Pack would be worth getting or would that be just too much money to spend?

just tried to by one of the £40 founder packs from the marvel site with paypal, filled in the details, went through to paypal entered password and clicked continue, it took me back to the marvel heroes site but was a white page.

No transaction showing up on my paypal and no confirmation emails either.

Reckon it just didnt work or should I leave it a while before I try again just incase?

Game is now on steam, and you can purchased packs through steam. I am not sure if they still force you to go through the official site though.

I downloaded this last night. Going to give it a go later. Look is good but I hope end game content is there and it has a large player base.

Hit 30 before, killed Dr.Doom. The game is easy as hell and there is no end game beyond some PvP. A very nice level of polish to it however so it's a damn shame.

A. The game is currently coded to increase xp gain, gear drop rates, and the enemies are easy-mode. This is so that beta testers can blitz through the content and test things. It will be fairly different on launch.

B. The end-game content isn't even available yet, it will be patched in the closed beta next week.

This made my day and now I know what premium pack I'm buying.

These 3 are a lot of fun to play.

3 Heroes (Black Widow, Ms. Marvel, Jean Grey)

Was playing a bit of Deadpool last night too. He is a lot of fun. Has anybody got him high up? Might just get him with the in-game currency.

Do you have any details as to how much harder it will be come release? how much they toned it down by or whatever, as that was the only thing turning me off really was just how nothing was challenging.

Baplad · 11 May 2013 at 17:01

Anyone lagging out often, causing it to go to like 1gb ram usage and 25% cpu usage?

Crpwned · 11 May 2013 at 18:27

I gots me a question!
Played a few of the beta weekends, really enjoyed it and looking forward to the release difficulty.
Is there going to be a Hardcore mode? Been playing hardcore Path of Exile a lot recently and am looking for the same rush that comes from the permadeath (well, in PoE it goes to default league but you get what I'm saying)

This is unplayable at the minute, constant lag and time outs.

They need better servers if they think this current heap of dung will hold up on release..

They aware of the issue and trying to sort it out. Rather in BETA than release.
